Q: Question removed by community moderation - is there more information about this? I just realized that I lost 105 reputation points - so I looked in my user profile and only found "removed" as the sole explanation. Not "User removed", just "removed"
This is the question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10567404/python-global-list
It says "This question was removed from Stack Overflow for reasons of moderation" and points to the FAQ which offers a number of reasons this could happen. However, this doesn't help me understand what was wrong with the question? Or was there something wrong with what I posted? 
I really am surprised no explanation is available (or perhaps I don't know how to find it?), how can anyone learn or draw any useful conclusions from any removals otherwise? Are the users with sufficient reputation points to use the moderator tools the ones who remove a question? Is this voted on or up to a single individual? 
I searched on meta and realize there are similar questions to this, I didn't come across one that explained the reasoning about why no information is provided about these removals.
Can anyone offer a reason and/or alternatively a way to find out what happened?
EDIT: Just to clarify this was not my question that was removed, I was someone who answered this question (there was some confusion as some posters assumed I was asking why my question was removed)

A: The question was closed as too localized.  The entire question was centered around a lack of understanding of python, and as written would not be helpful to anyone else. That's why it was closed. It was deleted for the same reason.
To give you some background as to why it is the way it is today:
We used to have a problem where people would post horrific questions.  Other people (perhaps well meaning, but at least in part motivated by reputation points) would answer these horrific questions, and get upvoted. Since these were usually easy questions to answer (much like the one you answered), there would be a lot of reputation points conferred.  You got 100 points (!) for telling someone they needed to call a function they defined.  Mind blown, right?
Because such questions detract from the quality of the site (not to mention that particular question would be answered just by going through the exercises in a learning Python book), they are normally removed.
Seeing as how you're not the OP (and you're not yet a 10K user), I can see where the confusion would come in.
It would be nice to have the ability to see deleted questions that you were involved* in.
*Involved means: answered said question
It would be even nicer if your user activity said,

Removed: Question was closed as too localized and subsequently deleted.


A: The question was first closed as "too localized" by five non-moderator votes.

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

It was then deleted two days later by three non-moderator votes.
As the problem faced by the OP was that they forgot to call the functions they wrote, I agree with the close and delete decisions.  I doubt this question is going to help anyone else.
